WASHINGTON, April 3 (AScribe Newswire) -- Led by the National Partnership for Women & Families, a coalition of over 100 organizations, representing tens of millions of workers is urging the Bush Administration's Department of Labor (DOL) not to use administrative procedures to reduce workplace protections for millions of workers and their families that are entitled to protections of the 1993 federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). The deadline for comments on the proposed changes to the FMLA is April 11. The Coalition is mobilizing to ensure the DOL receives comments opposing these proposed regulatory changes that could scale back FMLA access for workers.
